Li Zhuiyuan, a corpse retriever, travels through a mysterious resurrection.

Yang Jian noticed nothing unusual, chatted with the security guard, and said that he and Li Zhuiyuan were there to apply for jobs at the mall.

The young security guard led the two into a small shop in the mall, where four or five mall employees were idly entertaining themselves.

After the recruitment manager, Sister Li, stated some requirements, it was confirmed that the two would start work tomorrow.

After the young security guard showed the two around the mall, they left and returned to Yang Jian's home.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, did you find the ghost there? Apart from the stench of corpses, I didn't find anything." Yang Jian was a little confused. If he couldn't even find the ghost, this million wouldn't be so easy to get.

"That young security guard, and Sister Li, are not alive anymore," Li Zhuiyuan said calmly. "When they appeared, the stench of death was even stronger, and it was coming from them. I looked closely, and both of them had very small wounds around their necks, as if they had been beheaded with a very sharp knife. In the dimly lit environment of the mall, you wouldn't notice the wounds unless you looked very carefully."

"Another strange thing is that these two don't seem to realize they're dead and are still maintaining the same habits they had in life. I feel like the ghosts in the mall aren't so easy to deal with."

"What! The security guard and Sister Li aren't alive?" Yang Jian was shocked. The two people who had just been communicating with him normally were actually dead? He felt a chill run down his spine.

Just then, Zhang Wei called.

"Hey bro, missed you? I'm so bored now that I don't have to study anymore. I'll come over to your place and hang out. I heard 'Desire for Life and Death' has a new batch of technicians. How about I treat you to some big swords?"

Yang Jian said, "Don't come to my house looking for me. A ghost is impersonating my father and trying to kill me. I've found a job with Brother Xiaoyuan, and I'm going to start work tomorrow."

"A ghost can impersonate your dad! God, could my dad be a ghost too? Maybe I should stab him and see? Never mind, if my dad isn't a ghost, then he got stabbed for nothing." Zhang Wei exclaimed in shock, "Brother Xiao Yuan? Li Zhuiyuan?" Zhang Wei recalled the heroic act of Li Zhuiyuan a few days ago, carrying a ghost child and calmly swatting away pale ghost hands.

"Hmm... It's really reassuring to be with my Brother Xiaoyuan. Is the job fun? I'd like to join too." Zhang Wei would never forget the scene of Li Zhuiyuan carrying the ghost child and beating the ghost hand. He felt that calling him Brother Xiaoyuan was perfectly appropriate.

Yang Jian quickly said, "No, Brother Yuan has already confirmed that this place is haunted. I just came back from there, and Brother Yuan told me that the two people I was talking to are dead."

"That's so exciting, chatting with dead people?" Zhang Wei was silent for a while, then didn't mention going to work together again: "Brother, are you and Xiao Yuan short of money? You can come to me. My house is not only big, but also has many rooms. It includes food and lodging. You can stay as long as you want."

"No, I have things to do. Be careful lately, things have changed." Yang Jian hung up the phone.

The next day, it was almost noon.

Li Zhuiyuan and Yang Jian returned to the haunted shopping mall.

When they entered, there was already a group of people inside.

The leader was a short, middle-aged man wearing a suit.

When the young security guard Liu Qiang saw them arrive, he quickly stepped forward and whispered, "That's Mr. Tang, the owner of our mall. He invited Master Luo to exorcise the evil spirits. Keep your noise down and don't make him angry."

Yang Jian hummed in response but did not reply. He glanced at Liu Qiang with some surprise. If it weren't for Brother Xiao Yuan's reminder, he would never have guessed that the Liu Qiang in front of him was not a living person.

At the mall entrance, Master Luo, his face greasy, was preparing to perform a ritual.

He ordered his men to close and lock all the exits, affix talismans, set up an altar, and light incense burners.

Holding a peach wood sword, shaking his head and chanting incantations, he looked just like someone who was really into it.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, is that master really able to exorcise ghosts?" Yang Jian was intimidated by this and asked in a low voice.

"Have you forgotten? Only ghosts can fight ghosts," Li Zhuiyuan said. "That master doesn't have any supernatural aura. He's not a ghost tamer. All those tricks are fake."

Li Zhuiyuan did not control his volume, and it clearly reached everyone's ears in the dimly lit mall.

"Who! Who said I'm a fraud?" Master Luo angrily threw down his peach wood sword and said, "President Tang, since your mall employees don't believe me and say I'm a fraud, then I'm not going to perform this ritual."

Boss Tang immediately glared angrily at Li Zhuiyuan.

The manager next to him shouted, "Who hired a kid like you? Don't bother coming in tomorrow!"

"Bang!" Just then, a loud crash echoed, and something fell from the upper floor.

The crowd gathered around to look and discovered that it was a headless corpse. The body was already decomposed and smelled terrible.

Several timid people let out piercing screams.

"What's your name? It's just a corpse. Boss, you're ridiculous. Is your mall haunted? You actually hired a useless master to perform a ritual. If the master were useful, people like us wouldn't exist." A young man in his early twenties, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and gloves, came down from the fourth floor in the elevator.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Yan Li, and I specialize in handling paranormal cases."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian's expression hardened, while Li Zhuiyuan scrutinized Yan Li with great interest.

Apart from Zhou Zheng, they had not seen any other ghost tamers.

This is a good opportunity to observe other ghost tamers.

At the same time, Li Zhuiyuan noticed the unusual nature of the corpse; the cut on its neck was extremely clean and there was no blood at all, a very strange way of decapitation.

Yan Li then demanded five million to resolve the haunting issue at Boss Tang's mall. He then clashed with Master Luo and his group, and a fight broke out. Master Luo and his group were no match for the ghost-controlling Yan Li; his strength was astonishing, and he easily subdued them.

The violence prompted Mr. Tang's men to call the police.

Looking at Yan Li's ferocious and cold expression and his sinister and terrifying tone, Li Zhuiyuan felt as if he were an extremely vicious and violent criminal.

"This person is probably not like this by nature. After becoming a ghost tamer, his body is constantly being eroded and affected by vengeful ghosts. Imperceptibly, he becomes more and more brutal and doesn't take ordinary people seriously." Li Zhuiyuan observed Yan Li's behavior and analyzed his state.

As the atmosphere grew increasingly somber, the entire mall fell into darkness as someone turned off the lights.

Li Zhuiyuan, Yang Jian, and Yan Li all looked towards the fifth floor of the mall.

Beside the dimly lit glass railing on the fifth floor, a headless figure seemed to be watching them.

"It's finally here." Yan Li's face turned frantic, and he immediately rushed upstairs in the elevator.

"Brother Xiaoyuan, shall we go up?" Yang Jian asked.

"The ghost isn't on the fifth floor; that's a decoy. The ghost is on the first floor." Li Zhuiyuan scanned his surroundings. He could feel the ghost's gaze; the ghost was still staring at him.
